It appears to me General Electric (NYSE:GE), the multinational and well-diversified conglomerate company similar to Siemens AG (SI), is on the verge of regaining its defining moments again. In its annual letter to shareowners released recently and titled "A Real Opportunity for Change Is Here," Jeff Immelt, the CEO of GE, outlined the company's plan to improve shareholder value via future allocation of capital largely in the form of dividends to shareowners. Looking at the historical records of GE, a company once dubbed as the most valuable conglomerate in the world, any such promise should be taken with all seriousness.
GE maintained a good track record of dividend payouts for several years except during the period of financial meltdown, when the company reduced its dividend by almost two-thirds, prompted largely by the uncertainty in credit markets at that time. From 2000 to date, GE has paid out $106 billion in dividends. That record placed GE as one of the topmost companies on the dividend table and second only to Shell (NYSE:RDS.A), obviously due to the cut in its dividends during the financial crisis. In the annual letter, CEO Immelt pointed out that GE is planning to allocate over a $100 billion to shareholders in the "next few years" in dividend payouts, which might possibly span the next four to eight years.
To be frank, GE lost value for many shareholders who held the stock when it was over $40 prior to the financial crisis, and who are still holding the stock now that it has plummeted to about $23. You now need to determine if buying more of GE is the right thing to do at this time, when there is the possibility of earning more via increased dividends promised by the CEO.
How feasible is this promise of substantial dividend payouts in the "next few years"?
Currently, the average dividend payout to shareholders by GE per year stands at about $7 billion. If CEO Immelt has promised to distribute over a $100 billion in the next few years, that means the company will have to increase its dividend payouts to about $12.5 billion per year from the current figure, taking "the next few years" to be a maximum of eight. That idea sounds weird, but if we remember that GE is a cash cow, then $12.5 billion payouts per year in dividends appears achievable. CEO Immelt and his team would have to commit the company to more than doubling the dividend payouts of GE from the next quarter.
What to expect if the promise of substantial dividends payouts materialized!
Irrespective of anybody's thoughts about GE and its business outlook under the current CEO, if the payout turns out to be double the current dividend payout in the next few years then the stock needs no other impetus to gain in prices and start regaining high yields.
GE is currently in the news for various juicy business deals. Its Power Conversion unit has recently landed a contract worth over $600 million in Brazil. GE will be supplying Brazil's ambitious rig-building pre-salt oil program with propulsion, vessel automation, dynamic positioning, and drill systems. Also, recently, Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA) announced its decision to own outright NBC Universal, a unit of GE sold last year, via purchase of the remaining shares a year ahead of schedule. That means GE will yield a cash payment of about $15-$20 billion one year ahead of the originally planned schedule of incremental purchase of the remaining shares.
With a cash stockpile of about $125 billion early this year, this additional cash payment to GE by Comcast will swell its cash reserve to about $200 billion if you factor in almost $50 billion cash from its regular operations for 2013. There is no doubt that Chairman/CEO Immelt got his calculation right when he promised to add value to shareholders in excess of $100 billion in the next few years. You may now ask yourself if GE is worth holding right now or if it's the right time to buy more shares and improve your lot in the near future.

Should i buy this or Enslaved?
Now i know these are not exactly the same kind of game but with them both being out this week in the UK on Friday, i'm a little unsure as to which i should be buying?!
Anyone that has Castlevania (and/or Enslaved) how do they compare overall as i loved the Enslaved demo but i'm still on the fence regarding CV..??
I think castlevania looks better and has deeper gameplay, but Enslaved looks like it has a better story. Both look like they will offer some fun.
I can't decide so I'm borrowing some money so I can get both, loved both of the demos
C: LoS was supposed to redefine the Castlevania serie, but somewhat disappointed in doing so. By no means are 7.5/7.8 bad scores, but I expected at least an 8.5 or higher. But yeah, it has it flaws. And no, not because it borrows elements from GOW and DMC; the lamest complain reviewers can come up with... but they do! Ugh! Fixed camera controll, the 'little meat between the sandwich' story plot and unimaginative puzzles is what holds this title from being brilliant. The good parts about LoS? It looks ab-so-lu-te-ly stunning! If you're a courtisan for superb visuals, this game will blow you (away)! Oooh, and the atmosphere is uncanny! Combine terrific music to the mixture and you'll have an enthralling experience!
Enslaved: OttW seems to to be a little more original. Seems? Yeah well, I admit, I haven't played this game yet in favor of C:LoS. : ) And here's my recommendation to you. Go for E: OttW. I think it's the most interesting of the two. LoS can wait. But do buy it when you've got the time/money. Both these games deserve a place in your collection (and maybe even in your heart).
It''s hardly a well-opinionated review, but you're the final judge to decide which of these games you want play first. Good luck!
"Its getting a lot better than the Gamespot/IGN 7.5 scores, if you care about that. I agree with you about the fixed camera; its also looks kind of jerky in tight places because the character moves so fast. The story however, I like. So far (I'm one chapter in) they seem to have built a rich world around LoS. My main complaint so far is how it borrows from games like God of War and Shadow of the Colossus but what it borrows isn't as good as the original.
C: LoS was supposed to redefine the Castlevania serie, but somewhat disappointed in doing so. By no means are 7.5/7.8 bad scores, but I expected at least an 8.5 or higher. But yeah, it has it flaws. And no, not because it borrows elements from GOW and DMC; the lamest complain reviewers can come up with... but they do! Ugh! Fixed camera controll, the 'little meat between the sandwich' story plot and unimaginative puzzles is what holds this title from being brilliant.
Personally, I love the game. True fixed camera angle does suck a lot at times but it fits in the game well. Only problem that it really brings is the enemies off screen. I am suddenly whipping my whip off towards the camera and the enemies can't be seen yet.
Other than that I think that the only true reviews that you can get are from those who have no prior Castlevania experience with the series since there is less bias there. This was supposed to appeal to mass audiences to propel Castlevania to becoming a huge hit in the West like it was back in the 80's. Still has a great fanbase but they want to expand it into a HUGE one. Problem is that I think it will be a commercial failure. The guy at Gamestop yesterday said that they only sold around two copies by the time I picked it up that day...Sure everyone on forums/youtube comments have been sticking right by it, but when people see the corporate reviews by IGN/GS/GT they see the 7.5 and they make judgement.
Reviews to me have nothing to do with the numbers, I look for what is in the content of the reviewers words about how the game is. The only real problem that I have been seeing is that it is "not Castlevania" and is a "rip off of GoW, SotC, etc.". The number to me is for the lazy people who don't feel like taking time to read the review, they even say its "in depth" but no one reads comparatively.
I let my friend the other day play the first chapter at his house and he was amazed by it. I really do think it will fail commercially but it to me as a true blue CV fan since I was playing the NES in the 90's. It is a difference, and I see where they are coming from but still, the action is great and the bosses are phenominal. It actually feels like Castlevania should be when in 3D.
Again, I LOVE it, but not all people will. Cheesey dialogue is a low point at occasions and Patrick Stewart really is not fit to be Zobec (still can't stop thinking of Picard!).
Anyways...I haven't played Enslaved, but I have seen gameplay and the camera is terrible...makes me worried about DMC...but I am 100% sure that the new reboot of DMC is going to be the same as the reviews for LoS are... It looks really fun though still.
Basically: Don't pass off Castlevania, but find out more from other people who own it first before you listen to my opinion.
Judging by both demos: Enslaved is pretty amazing. Castlevania is... meh.
" @Jeust said:
" Neither are very original, still competent. Unless you're looking for something mindblowing both of will please your senses. "How many games do you know where you play as a slave? ...None? So its original. "
Enslaved story is based on an ancient chinese legend. :p
Here's how I usually decide on what game to buy: I stand around staring at the games at the store for about five to ten minutes. Afterwards, I go looking around at other stuff. I then come back and stare some more. I go back to looking around at other things. I come back for the last time and ask myself "have I made a decision within three times of coming over to stare at these games?". If I have, then I get one. if not, then I don't bother. Why? Well, why would I buy a game at full price if I couldn't even decide which one I wanted within three trips back and forth? It just means I'm going to wait until it's on sale.
I would recommend Enslaved.
I had the same problem, a friend of mine picked up Castlevania and I picked up Enslaved. I've been completely enjoying myself so far, my friend on the other-hand has been having a real love/hate relationship with the game he picked up. From my understanding: If you're into a long twenty hour action game with gameplay akin to GoW (not a bad thing) with little to no pacing, then Castlevania is right up your alley. Personally, my tolerance for that style of gameplay hit's around the eight hour mark or so, and I've hear the middle of the game has moments that drag on
Enslaved seems a bit short, but it's better paced and has been so far, incredibly fresh. Castlevania is going to be around for a while, Enslaved on the other-hand might be this year's under-appreciated hit that doesn't get the sales it deserves. Someone else in another thread responded to me, saying that his local GameStop got like, three copies on launch to sell for 360. Go pick up Enslaved, it's going to be a long holiday season and Castlevania can wait.

" Neither are very original, still competent. Unless you're looking for something mindblowing both of will please your senses. "How many games do you know where you play as a slave? ...None? So its original. "
@YodaShinoda: I would have to say if you are into narrative go with Enslaved.
I'll be honest, i think Enslaved is gonna be my game of the year. From playing the demo 5 times through and really itching to get it first thing tomorrow morning, i can see myself becoming absolutely obsessed with it! Until Fallout, Vanquish, Fable..come out lol
" @Jeust said:You start as a slave in Oblivion, IIRC." Neither are very original, still competent. Unless you're looking for something mindblowing both of will please your senses. "How many games do you know where you play as a slave? ...None? So its original. "
Pretty much Red Dead Redemption, too, at least in a way very similar to Enslaved. Monkey is "enslaved" but he's not exactly a "slave" per se. It's hard to explain what I'm trying to say but he starts out free (or escaping or what-have-you), gets a headband, and then if my impression later is correct he starts to do the stuff willingly despite the headband still being on him. It's more like he's been captured, in my eyes.
Not saying it isn't original, just that the slave angle of it isn't the reason why. I would say the design of the world, from a post-apocalyptic standpoint is quite original, though. I haven't played the full game yet, just the demo, so for all I know it's gets really innovative later on with other stuff.
Finally finished both games, and I'd say LoS should be your first pick. While it's story isn't great I didn't find Enslaved to be too epic either. LoS on the other hand has way way better setpieces and much more varied gameplay. While it lacks abit on the collectibles department, I'd say that's better than the overkill Enslaved has of putting orbs in every single corner of every single room. LoS is also (as already mentioned) longer, and if you're into it it has challenges for every single level that allows the game to live on even longer.
Get Enslaved, it's everything that you loved in the demo, but more, much more. It's a captivating story, and you'll play majority of it in one sitting if you give yourself that time. I also own Castlevania, and I stopped playing Castlevania and started playing Enslaved and beat it. I don't even know if I'm going to go back to Castlevania, the story and the game feels chopped up because of the mission complete screen with every section of each chapter.
said:This is very true, but it's a trick of the mind. If you go into it expecting a great story and cinematic experience ala GoW or Uncharted this will be annoying, but if you put the story on the back-burner and just play the game it's not a big problem." the story and the game feels chopped up because of the mission complete screen with every section of each chapter. "
Enslaved's gameplay is almost like a trial to go through to get to the awesome story-telling portions. The VO is great, and the back and forth between Monkey and Trip are great. Still, its game-play suffers.
Castlevania, on the other hand, has a pretty shallow, befuddling story, but has some of the most satisfying game-play in any character-action-game I've played in the past few years (it even beats out God of War 3 for me), and the variety really keeps you going. It doesn't really pick up until 2 hours in, and the pacing isn't always 100% consistent, but it's a great experience. It's also of a good length, so if that's a consideration for you, know that it's about twice as long as Enslaved.
Personally, I'd recommend buying Castlevania and renting Enslaved. They're both good, but I felt that I was struggling to get over the clunkiness of the game-play (the camera is especially obnoxious) in Enslaved, while I never really felt like putting down Castlevania.
I am really enjoying Enslaved so far. No its not revolutionary, but its a well paced, fun component game that five chapters in so far I can't wait till I can get back to play it some more. Its fun, and you'll get that out of it at least. And that's what games are for right?

I'm on board with many of the comments previously mentioned, chiefly that Outlander GT's all-wheel drive is excellent, and the engine is not so excellent. While not slow, the V-6 feels disconcertingly taxed and sounds unreasonably strained when revved high. However, the composure of the Outlander and high speeds and in turns just might outweigh the lack of refinement.
As Mike notes, Mitsubishi claims they're aiming for the Subaru Outback, but by my book the Outlander is a unique entry that doesn't need comparison. Its steering and handling capabilities are far above those of the Outback. That, to me, vaunts it well ahead of the soggy Subaru. The Outlander is also $1000 cheaper than an Outback Limited. Sure the interior isn't as nice to touch, but it's fine to look at.

The Weekly Photo: Red Rocks National Park
Red Rocks National Park outside of Las Vegas, Nevada
Red Rocks National Park outside of Las Vegas, Nevada
Breathtaking scene. Looks like a great day for weekend hike or perhaps a stroll with the family. Those red rocks are the nature's masterpiece!
When I was living in Vegas, I took my parents here when they came to visit. None of us gamble, so we were forced to find other things to do in Vegas. Luckily there are countless options once you get off the strip and red rock is one of the best. Coming from Seattle like we did, the scenery look like another world–Mars perhaps.
I'm going to be that guy. It's Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.
Red Rock is governed by the US Bureau of Land Management and not the National Park Service. That may be a subtle difference but I think an important one. There are only 58 sites designated as true US National Parks. And if National Memorials, Monuments, Historic Sites, Preserves, etc. are included, the list approaches 400.
In comparison, the US Bureau of Land Management oversees 16 National Conservation Areas. And their duties to those sites are much more limited.
Never mind the rocks, get a load of that gorgeous desert sky!
Been to Red Rocks – such a relief after hanging out on the strip. Well worth going out there and checking out the numerous trails in that area.
Traveling to red rock is a lot of fun and a must when traveling to Vegas. Another must is a great travel app called turbcast for iPhone.

You can choose over this website http://home-and-garden.become.com/shower-squeegee to see what squeegee can work for your home properly. I do recommend buying a squeegee that comes in higher prices because they are more durable and effective. they should be around $20 to $30 bucks.. |

Starting to sound like I own a janitorial supply house (not) but go there and get one of the metal ones. They're kind of a brassy color with a blade that can be replaced. They will also fit on a pole. The name on mine are called Ettore. They are so old, but it does look like they still make them. They also sell one that you can put a "bonnet" on to clean/scrub high windows. I thought I also saw some at the Home Depot, but I didn't stop and check the name brand. Here's their web site, just so you know what you are looking for. |

I used squeegees on tile and doors for years but have since changed to a large microfiber cloth. Just wring it out and it is ready to use again. Change the cloth as needed....2-3 weeks or so. |

I have this one from Casabella. I bought it at a Restoration Hardware store. Not sure if RH still has them or not. I bought mine a few years ago but if this is still the same quality it is very good. You can clip it on the shower head too which I love. I also have the brass kind mentioned above that I use for hardcore cleaning of windows along with a "wooly". Not practical for the shower in my book. |

I have the OXO Good Grips squeegee purchased at Amazon.com for $6.95, but I'm sure it can be found elsewhere, also. I have had it about four years and I love it. It has a suction holder to stick on the shower wall, then place the squeegee back in the holder after using it. Mine sometimes falls off, but has been in tact for almost a year without finding it on the shower floor.

My sister e-mailed me yesterday and told me that my niece (23 y/o) got her first firearm yesterday, a snubnose 38 revolver she purchased from a police officer. It was his BUG.
She's a chef and apparently recently her and the owners of the restaurant she works at got a scare after closing from a suspicious couple. Both owners carry concealed and the situation motivated her to do the same.
So now she's going to take the class and get her concealed carry (in NC). I texted her and congratulated her and sent her some links to good websites (including DC and handgunlaw.us). My sister told her if she had any questions to call me.
So I'm now the proud uncle of another armed good person.

I have been watching this inflo for a few weeks, and finally my Musk Rainbow bloomed. I have had this plant for about 4 years, and it has always bloomed like crazy. We just recently moved, and I placed it in our screened pool area, and I had no inflos/blooms. Needless to say, it was not happy, and did not like the added shade from the screen. I planted it in the backyard earlier this year, and it is a lot happier. This pic was taken after it was open for 2 days. |

I spotted an (insert obscure car name here) classic car today!
hpmctorque Posts: 4,346True in a way, but the Versailles was more luxurious than the Cimmaron; cushier ride, more upscale interior. Although I never rode in a Versailles, my perception, based on a few Granada V8s I drove, was that the Versailles was a decent Sunday cruiser, and didn't pretend to be a BMW alternative. It was marketed to folks who sought domestic luxury in a trimmer package. The Versailles achieved that modest goal better than the Cimarron, though probably not as well as the Seville.
I think that Cadillac aimed the Seville at luxury import buyers, whereas Lincoln's marketing goal was more modest. -
uplanderguy Kent, OHPosts: 7,717I still very-much like those '70's Sevilles, in and out. I remember Betty White's pastel light green with white vinyl top one being for sale a couple years ago...a distinctive color combination.
GM did a far-better job (IMHO) differentiating the Seville from its humble origins. I'd be surprised if a single piece of glass or sheetmetal of a Seville interchanged with a Nova. On the other hand, a Versailles WAS a Granada--even the instrument panel if I recall correctly. I did like the screaming turquoise metallic offered on the Versailles. I seem to remember a similar color on '79 Cadillacs. -
fintail Posts: 34,549The Versailles was pretty shameless as a Granada spinoff (and the Granada itself was shamelessly marketed as some kind of affordable Mercedes), but it was much nicer trimmed than a Cimarron, from what I have seen. I think the Lincoln was seen as more of a "right size" car for the same people who would buy a larger car, whereas the Seville was definitely influenced by more trim and less glitzy European cars. Maybe the first admission that MB and BMW were taking a bite out of premium sales.
Funny thing, the bustleback Seville that replaced the clean 75-79 piled on the ostentation again, trying to mimic a 1940s Rolls Royce. I'll admit I like the bustlebacks though, at least one that is properly optioned. -
andre1969 Posts: 22,238I thought at first perhaps the windshield, A-pillars, and basic structure of the front doors was the same as a Nova and Seville, but upon closer inspection, even those details seem different. While the Nova was more angular than in the past, the Seville seems a bit more, still. I imagine the cowl and B-pillar are in the same spot though, with the Seville's extra ~3.3" going in aft of the B.
Unfortunately, the one area where the Nova's roots showed through in the Seville, to me at least, was the seating position. Not enough legroom, windshield, dash, and steering wheel too close for my comfort, etc.
It's been ages since I've sat in a Granada though, so I can't remember how it, and the Versailles, would compare. I still had my '89 Gran Fury when I did though, and I do remember the Gran Fury seemed a lot bigger inside.
Judging just on looks, I think the Seville has it all over the Versailles. And of course Chrysler didn't have anything in that prestige class at the time. But, if I was going to choose one of those "small" luxury cars from that era, I think I would've gone with a fully-loaded '77-79 LeBaron or Diplomat, and just pocketed the savings. For being a guzzied up Volare, those suckers could be optioned up VERY nicely inside, with leather and whatnot. Even a regular Volare or Aspen could be pretty nice, if you opted for the Premier and S/E models. But the LeBaron/Diplomat looked much more "important". -
andre1969 Posts: 22,238If I had to drive the car on a regular basis, I'd take a Bustleback over the Nova-based Seville any day, mainly because of the aforementioned seat comfort issue. As nice as the first Seville is, it still feels like a compact to me. But the Bustleback feels more like a full-sized car, just narrowed down to a roomy 4-seater. But it still has thick, plush, comfy seats, good legroom, etc.
And if you get the 1980, they're actually somewhat quick with the Caddy 368. MT tested one and got 0-60 in around 10.6 seconds. The first-gen was more like 12-13, according to most tests I've seen. -
fintail Posts: 34,549I remember seeing a pic of an old lady driving a Nova Seville, and thinking the same thing - it wasn't particularly roomy. They are fairly attractive from outside anyway.
A 1980 Seville with metallic paint in a light/medium blue, or blue two tone (I suppose some silvers and greys would be ok too), grey, dark blue or maybe beige/tan/creme leather, moonroof, no vinyl top, no faux Rolls grille or junk on the back, alloy style wheels instead of wires or caps, etc, would be a fairly cool car. -
robr2 BostonPosts: 8,105I imagine the cowl and B-pillar are in the same spot though, with the Seville's extra ~3.3" going in aft of the B.
I'd say that would be correct. According to wiki, the 75-76 models had a mandatory vinyl roof as the roof was made of two stampings: the X body front and then a special C pillar for the Seville.
Also interesting - the first 2000 Sevilles were all exactly the same in color and equipment so workers could ramp up their skills.
Personally, I'd take a non bustle back, black and silver two tone. Although, I lover the bustle back back then, I think the RWD Gen 1 is better looking today. -
hpmctorque Posts: 4,346Yeah, the bustleback Sevilles were neat, in their way. However, they were also a marketing and image continuity mistake, in my opinion. That's because they sent a confusing message regarding what the Seville stood for. It's one thing to offer a domestic alternative to the premium German brands, and quite another to do a cheap imitation of a super premium marque. To be clear, by super premium I'm referring to RR's price, not engineering and quality.
One of the cardinal rules of marketing and product positioning is to not confuse the buyer. To me, the bustleback Seville was Cadillac's equivalent to the Granada/Monarch, albeit in different ways. Although each of these models were cheap imitations, I think that most Granada/Monarch buyers knew they weren't getting Mercedes engineering and refinement, but the huge sales made them very successful. There was similarity in that the Granada/Monarch and Seville were short-term shots in the arm, then suffered setbacks.
Had Cadillac put its resources into refining and improving the original Seville in its second iteration, it probably would have improved its long-term prospects. Also, Cadillac should have differentiated itself from the lower priced GM brands by remaining RWD. In fact, the Olds 98/Aurora and Buick Electra/Park Avenue/Riviera should also have remained RWD. In fairness, though, I'll readily acknowledge that it's much easier to make these observations in hindsight than when tasked with doing product planning years in advance, as auto industry engineers and execs must do.
Circling back to the Versailles, I don't think it damaged the Lincoln brand too much, especially compared with what the Cimarron did to Cadillac. The Versailles was soon forgotten, but the Cimarron is still ridiculed as Cadillac's folly, much as the Vega was Chevy's folly and the Aztek was Pontiac's. -
tjc78 JerseyPosts: 5,025The Versailles is no different than many "luxury" cars today. We all know the MKz is a Fusion, an ES 350 is a Camry, an XTS is a Impala etc etc. the difference today is the cars the luxury models are based on are actually decent cars!
To add, I'd take a Versailles over a Cimarron any day.1999 Chevy S10 / 2004 Merc Grand Marquis / 2012 Buick LaCrosse
fintail Posts: 34,549Yep, that's why I mentioned it - the 75 Seville was at least an attempt at Euro size and clean styling, but the 80 forgot about that and went full-on pimp. I wonder how it would have turned out if GM designers had decided to follow the trim ideal of a W123 or E12 instead, as I think they were trying to compete in relatively similar price brackets.
A lot of those execs probably still didn't think the competition was for real. They made a big mistake. They should have known something was up when Janis Joplin's song was released
I too would take a Versailles over a Cimarron, due to rarity and content/comfort. One like the car I rode in as a kid would be a decent enough Sunday cruiser, and it would probably get a compliment at Ford shows.
For obscure cars, I was just out and saw a Pontiac 6000, I think an earlier model - couldn't see if it had CHMSL or not, but it didn't have composite lights. Also saw an odd BMW E30, seemed to be sitting higher than usual. Did the US get the xi? -
hpmctorque Posts: 4,346
uplanderguy Kent, OHPosts: 7,717I don't know for certain, but I seem to remember that no-vinyl-top Sevilles started showing up in '76. The first 2,000 or so Sevilles were all silver, matching vinyl top, gray leather interior. Amazingly, our small-town dealer got one of those. I remember being astounded that it cost more than a Sedan deVille.
robr2 BostonPosts: 8,105The Versailles is no different than many "luxury" cars today. We all know the MKz is a Fusion, an ES 350 is a Camry, an XTS is a Impala etc etc. the difference today is the cars the luxury models are based on are actually decent cars!
Nah - most people today have no idea that those cars are cousins. We do but the vast majority of the driving public are blind to the fact.
The Versailles OTOH was easy to tell it was based on the Granada/Monarch especially when in an LM dealership. -
andre1969 Posts: 22,238In all fairness, I do think they do a pretty good job these days differentiating the Impala/LaCrosse/XTS, Fusion/Mark Z, and Camry/Avalon/ES350. I imagine there are very few body panels/trim pieces, etc that would swap across them.
However, you could take a Granada, and everything that makes it a Versailles would most likely bolt, or snap, right on. The fenders, hood, doors, and quarter panels all look the same. Even the front bumper looks the same, although the Versailles has more rubber stripping, bumper guards, etc...all stuff that was no doubt optional on a Granada. The header panel, while different from a Granada, still looks like it's designed to mate up to the same fenders and hood. Oh, and the trunk was different, but that's an easy swap. The C-pillar area was thicker, but that was most likely just a slap-on extension, covered over by the vinyl roof. Chrysler did the same thing in the 1980's to differentiate a 5th Ave from a Diplomat or Gran Fury.
Inside, it looks like they even use the same dash, although a lot of the easy-swap stuff has been changed, and some of the materials upgraded. The seats and door panels are definitely nicer, but again, that's all easy-swap stuff.
It wouldn't be the first time, nor the last time, that the domestics would take a plebian, mainstream car and try to turn it into something more upscale. But it probably holds some kind of record for such lofty aspirations. A base Granada probably cost about $4,000 or so in 1977, while I'm sure a Versailles was around $10-12K.
Ford did a much better job, IMO, with the 1982 era Continental, which could be traced all the way down to a Fairmont. But I think they did a better job hiding that. Similarly, Chrysler took a lowly Volare and spun it into the '81-83 Imperial. But again here, it's not blatantly obvious.
The Cadillac Cimarron was pretty blatant, as well, but by that time, if you fully optioned up a Cavalier, I don't think there wasn't *that* huge of a price gap. -
fintail Posts: 34,549The 77-78 Versailles didn't even differentiate the C-pillar. Now that I examine this pic, it's pretty comical, such an obvious Granada with lots of decoration:
Then for 79-80, the C-pillar was changed:
I'll admit I actually like the Granada C-pillar more, but the new pillar helped differentiate the car a bit. I suppose the new 82 Continental filled the role of this car. -
andre1969 Posts: 22,238So even for '77-78, the C-pillar wasn't any different at all from a Granada? It seems a bit thicker to me, but maybe that's just because it was extra thickly padded?
I had forgotten about that '79-80 C-pillar change. I'm actually impressed a bit, that they went through the effort to change the rear doors, even! And yeah, I think that '77-78 C-pillar does look better. The blockier, thicker pillar just seems too large, and out of place on the car IMO. Even if it does differentiate it better.
I also noticed that the cutout for the taillight is different on the Versailles, being angled on the side, rather than vertical like on the Granada and Monarch. So I guess that took a slight bit of effort. But then, I guess the sheetmetal is still the same, just with a slightly different cutout for the taillight? So I could be giving them more credit than they deserve.
I'll admit that I kind of like the Monarch, as well. They seemed a bit less fussy up front than the Granada. And I liked the way the rear seemed more finished off. I never liked the exposed gas cap on the Granada, although perhaps the nicer trim levels did a better job of hiding it? -
robr2 BostonPosts: 8,105Oh, the Versailles was a reactionary product in response to the big gap in the Lincoln product line once the second energy crisis hit. Ford didn't have as much $$$ as GM so they pulled out the make up case.
According to wiki, the base Versailles was identical except for badging and the trunk lid to the top of the line Monarch and was priced TWICE as much. -
texases Posts: 5,719"The 77-78 Versailles didn't even differentiate the C-pillar."
Seems like the C pillar/roof is one of the more expensive things to change on a design. Several generations of the Lexus GS has the same C pillar/roof, even though front and rear styling changed. Same for the Chrysler 200/Sebring, and the prior Fusion/MKZ. To Toyota's credit they've used all-different sheet metal on the Camry/ES twins, at least from the second generation on. -
fintail Posts: 34,549Maybe Versailles had thicker vinyl tops, yeah. But it has to be the same C-pillar. I bet it was changed due to negative reaction - but by then the damage was done. I think the boxy 79-80 is too formal, and looks too large towards the rear. I bet Versailles depreciation was spectacular, too.
stickguy Posts: 15,897actually rolling on the road. I think it was a mid-80s vintage. looked reasonably clean. Old people driving it.
but the funniest part? If had little red squares velcro'd to the corner of the license plates. Jersey people should know what this means, but it is something required for teens that are in their first year of probational driving.
yes, it seems that someone lets a 17YO drive around in a 30 YO Rolls Royce.2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.4i Limited Tech (mine), 2013 Acura RDX (wife's) and 2007 Volvo S40 (daughters college car)
fintail Posts: 34,549Ah the Catera, another goof. In Europe just an Opel Omega - kind of a German Caprice, not really a prestige car, introduced in 1994. When it is 4 years old it comes to NA as some kind of miracle sporty Caddy - with a healthy MSRP and lots of reliability quirks IIRC. I think the Euro models fared better, probably due to different powertrains.
And now it is somewhat represented by the Insignia, which we get as the Regal. -
hpmctorque Posts: 4,346Also, the addition of ~500 pounds to the Omega, to meet Federal standards and to make it more Cadillac-like, changed the character of the Catera in a negative way. From what I read the Omega was the better of the two cars. What hurt the Catera the most, though, was its high frequency of repair record, and the owner vs. dealer squabbles over what was and wasn't covered under the warranty.
My nephew worked at a Cadillac dealer while the Catera was being sold, and he said the service department dreaded them.
And which overpaid marketing genius came up with the name "Catera?" What cruel parent would give a child such a name?
Finally, let's not forget "the Caddy that zigs" tag line. That reference to Ziggy, the duck, was more sad than funny, and especially inappropriate for a luxury brand.
For all its misses, the Catera had decent styling and drove well enough.

Football Takes Down Dragons, Gain Playoff Berth
The St. Cloud State Huskies improved their record to 9-2 (9-1 in the NSIC) this season with a convincing 42-16 victory of MSU-Moorhead (2-9, 2-8 in the NSIC) Saturday in Moorhead, Minn. The Huskies got off to a fast start, scoring on a 52 yard touchdown pass from Philip Klaphake to Fred Williams. After an MSU field goal, Williams caught a six yard touchdown pass to make the score 14-3. Moorhead scored on a touchdown pass, and had cut the lead to 14-9 at the end of the first quarter. After that it was all Huskies. Williams caught his third touchdown pass of the game and Klaphake threw his fourth touchdown pass to tight end Corey Henne, late in the second quarter. The halftime score was 28-9, Huskies.
The Huskies scored on a 65 yard interception return by junior defensive back Tony Kubes in the third. The Huskies also added a Mike Walker touchdown run to cap off the day for St. Cloud State. The Huskies outgained Moorhead by 250 yards, and never allowed the game to stay close after the first quarter. Freshman quarterback Philip Klaphake threw for 335 yards and four touchdowns, and senior wide out Fred Williams had 12 catches for 183 yards, and three touchdowns.
It was a must win game for the Huskies to keep their playoff aspirations alive, and the Huskies did not succumb to the pressure, putting together one of their most complete performances of the season. With the victory the Huskies advanced into the Super Regional playoffs, and will host Hillsdale College this Saturday at Husky Stadium. Game time is scheduled for noon, and can be heard on 88.1, KVSC radio, and online at kvsc.org.

BoraCare, FiberLock Shockwave or Mold Control?
I am thinking mold control as I have used this in the past but I heard BoraCare is more industrial strength and actually penetrates the wood in addition to killing the mold. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Clorox.....Dealing with water in the basement situations, clorox kills mold,,,10% solution...1 cup clorox to 10 cups water....spray and let dry. Linda C |
I was told that Bleach is ineffective at removing mold. While it does clean mold color from materials it does not kill mold spores which is what I want to do. |
old thread, but Sounds like it is lacking roof ventilation to allow that mold to start. |

(Noah Graham/NBAE)Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant officially broke his silence on Dwight Howard's bolt from Los Angeles to sign with the Rockets, tweeting on Monday that he wishes Howard "the best." Bryant noted, however, that he'll no longer be following him on Twitter because the two will be going head-to-head in the Western Conference."I wish d12 the best honestly," Bryant tweeted. "I just find it hard to follow players that wanna kick my team's [butt]."Prior to Monday, Bryant's actions had spoken louder than his words in reacting to Howard's move. He posted a photo of himself and longtime teammate Pau Gasol on Instagram shortly after Howard confirmed his move. He also took the step of unfollowing Howard on Twitter.According to reports that emerged before Howard officially made his decision, Bryant may have had a hand in Howard's decision to walk. Bryant's reported sales pitch was a "complete turnoff" for Howard.In a subsequent tweet, Bryant vaguely weighed in on how he thinks the team should proceed after Howard's departure."Personally I'd keep Metta [World Peace] and make a run with the unit we have and just add a few pieces," Bryant said in the tweet.The Lakers, however, have reportedly decided to wave World Peace via the team's amnesty provision, a move that will save them approximately $30 million. But they did agree to a one-year contract with center Chris Kaman.I wish d12 the best honestly. I just find it hard to follow players that wanna kick my teams ass #thatsjustme— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) July 9, 2013Personally I'd keep Metta and make a run with the unit we have and just add a few pieces #keepthepeace #lakersstilldeciding — Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) July 9, 2013 Promoted Stories Comments

I used to drink green tea every day and I experienced no benefit whatsoever to my skin--in fact, i'm pretty sure it made my acne worse due to the caffeine (my doctor was the one who actually pointed this out).
I don't know what the reviewer down there is talking about when she claims that green tea regulates her hormones...it's far more likely that she stopped breaking out due to the fact that her body finally adjusted to the birth control and hormones her doctor put her on...
I like to use it topically, sometimes as a toner, sometimes as a spot treatment. It totally kills the inflammation on your face, which works wonders for any cystic acne you have. Seriously. Have you ever had a big red inflamed pustle/cyst on your face and then had to resort to taking advil to make it less inflamed and noticeable? I have. It totally works, but usually when the advil wears off the cyst blows right back up worse than ever. Green tea is way better, and sometimes it can help them go away or come to a head a lot faster. I'm not sure how it does it, as it causes no irritation whatsoever, but I could swear that it even seems to help dry them out sometimes.
Green tea oxidates over the span of hours, so don't bother leaving it around too long. I leave it brewing in a sealed travel mug for a couple of hours and then use it as a toner after washing my face. Then I use it again in the morning (my travel cup is metal and so tightly sealed that it's actually still warm by the AM otherwise I wouldn't use it).
Brewing it in boiling water and using longer steeping times increases the polyphenols---though this makes it taste like bitter crap, so keep that in mind if you're going to drink it.
I read online that if you let green tea brew and cool down and let it get strong (I leave the green tea brew 15-30 mins) and apply to your skin it will take out redness.
Also drinking it is good.
This is a follow up review on drinking green tea.
I now drink plain green tea with pure honey, still from Twinings.
This drink is so insanely good for you. My hormones have regulated a fair bit so that womanly problems aren't horrendous anymore, my muscle mass is growing fast with this and training and I've not caught every single bug that's going around like I normally do.
Used as a topical that's just left on over night this forms like a film over my skin so that it can't breathe and I get more spots.
This didn't get rid of my acne like it looked like it would at the start. I don't particularly care and I'll drink this forever for the other health benefits.
It does seem to have reduced it somewhat though. This stuff really inspires you to get healthier in other ways too, and if nothing else, your self esteem will thank you for it. A healthy life style makes you glow, and somehow your acne seems less important and smaller.
Ive been struggling with acne for a year now. Im 24/f have had crystal clear skin all throughout my teens. I got struck with a horomonal problem and was placed on a cocktail of birth controls and other horomonal meds. In summary, my skin became a mess as of the summer of last year. I mean huge cysts that were filled with sebum ( the kind that no matter how much you squeezed more oil came out) gross i know, but the problem was horomonal. Tried saw palmetto, mint tea all if which were supposed to decrease the androgen causing horomone that was causing this gross skin condition, of course with no result. Summer time seems to aggrevate the condition due to the hot and humid air which caused my skin to be more oily, was on the verge of going on yaz but decided to go for one last natural approach.... Green tea! Ive been drinking the stuff 4 cups daily with no sugar or other additives, with lots of water and honey miced with sugar masks 2xs a day and i can officially say my skin has gone back to its natural texture. Normal/dry as opposed to super oily. Not only does green tea work on detoxifying the body and getting rid of the inflammation and acne causing bacteria but it also regulates the overly active androgen horomone which leads to acne. Check out some of the info i have found. Green tea is an absolute miracle Scientists at the Tang Center for Herbal Medicine Research at the University of Chicago identified a specific green tea catechin called (-) epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) as the main hormone-regulating catechin. Multiple animal studies show that injections of EGCG modulate androgens and other hormones which contribute to acne development.1
Green tea has significantly reduced my acne. I don't think it's the green tea alone though--when I drink it, it makes me feel healthier, and that has inspired me to clean up my diet and simplify my skincare system. I do two things: I drink two pots of strong (two teabags each) green tea (organic, caffeinated, flavored or not depending on whether I want to use teabags topically) and then I rub the unflavored teabags on my skin in the morning to wash my face. I then put on a serum and moisturizer. I don't drink or use the decaffeinated kind, because green tea is pretty low in caffeine already, and I try to avoid any extra processing I can. My skin has gone from moderate to light acne because of the green tea (and subsequent diet and lifestyle changes). I find the best kind is the Japanese organic green tea. I've noticed it seems to be the best kind to rub on my skin. Best thing is, I didn't have an initial breakout!
So i tried this in summer 2011 for my acne and i was sure to drink multiple cups a day for a few weeks. Outcome - did nada for my acne. Green tea is supposed to be good for your body none the less but don't bank on it to 'cure' or 'control' your acne.
Also tried this as a topical and it irritated my skin beyond belief.
i started drinking maybe around 3 to 4 cups of green tea a day hoping it would help with my the acne i do get once in a while. On top of that, i would swish around the tea bag all around my face, and let the bag sit there for 10 minutes. This was 3 weeks ago.
Since than i've been very happy with the results, my skin is brighter and smoother and havent had any new breakouts! The tea bag applied topically has gotten rid of most of my acne, and the best part i feel really healthy!
Im not saying you're acne will go away in like 10 seconds, cause it wont. But you'll see results with in a week or so. Definitely recommend it, worth a shot (: ! <3
been through the whole going to the doctors and going on the pill but that seemed to worsen things.
i came off the pill back in december, skin was the worse it has ever been, especially on my forhead& chin
i was living in australia at the time, the humidity was unbearable& making things worse.
moved back to the UK in january , due to air con, climate change, stress and messed up hormones, as well as a dramatic weightloss, my skin looked horrendous!
i started on a natural routine, that has been on and off for about 5-6 months.
1. i started drinking more water - and natural teas (dandilion and burdock mostly and chamomile)
2. i used Dr organics tea tree facial wipes( going back to simple products)
3. used non comodegenic concealer ( physicians formula twin concelealer)
4.i would only use aloe vera as moisturiser.
5. cut out diary
6. ate more healty in general (cut out junk food - not entirely- ate more veggies)
and my skin looked a lot better, sometimes, but nothing drastic.
so i changed it recently and wow im noticing a big difference
the aloe vera made me get a lot of blackhead, so i now only using it for dryness around the nose and soothing of tired eyes.
the burdock tea actually made my skin worse as it was detoxifying my body too much i wasnt getting vitimins from good food i was eating - so i stopped that
the tea tree wipes are great. i remove my makeup with them every night and it works great.
the concelaer is so moisterising and not suffocating. it is not seeping in your skin and pores
i use a clindomycin antibiotical lotion - cleared my forhead acne, cheek acne.
BUT only started drinking green tea a week ago, on my period, WOW - clear skin&complexion, less redness, more awake, its not a miracle, but i do believe along with my other natural ways, green tea will eventually keep my complexion and post acne marks down, aswell as working as an anti i
i have suffered acne for almost a decade!!!!
it ruined my life, i became so depressed with my face that i constantly been thinking of commiting suicide.
and thank god i came across this site and read about green tea. . .
i drink 1 pitcher of containing 3 bags of green tea and i apply it topically in the morning and at night. during the first week i didnt notice anything and it looked like my acne worsen but i did not stop i wanted to try it for 2 weeks so i just waited and in 2 weeks time, the size of my pimples reduced significantly and my over all skin condition improved!!!
now im on my 4th week of drinking it, i only got few breakouts but they are small, i constantly get compliments it really feels good!!!!
I drink approximately 3-4 cups of green tea daily and apply it to my face once or twice per day.
When applying it topically, I start by soaking a green tea bag in cold water for 10-15 min. Then I apply the tea bag on my face on the affected areas and wait for my face to dry a little. After that I use a non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent dryness. The water that I soaked the tea bag in I sometimes use the next morning. I apply it with a cotton pad and moisturize again.
Both drinking green tea and applying it topically has really reduced my acne significantly. It has also been very beneficial for my sensitive skin, since it does not cause irritation.
I urge everyone who wants to improve their complexion to try it!

The name of this mesmerizing colonial city, originating from the Quechua aya (death, or soul) and cuchu (outback), offers a telling insight into its past. Ayacucho's status as isolated capital of a traditionally poor department provided the perfect breeding ground for Professor Abimael Guzmán to nurture the Sendero Luminoso (Shining Path) Maoist revolutionary movement bent on overthrowing the government and causing thousands of deaths in the region during the 1980s and '90s. Yet the city's historically poor links with the outside world have also helped foster a fiercely proud, independent spirit evident in everything from the unique festivals to the booming cultural self-sufficiency.
The shadow of Ayacucho's dark past has long been lifted but travelers are only just rediscovering its treasures. Richly decorated churches dominate the vivid cityscape alongside peach- and pastel-colored colonial buildings hung with wooden balconies. Among numerous city festivities, Ayacucho boasts Peru's premier Semana Santa celebrations, while in the surrounding mountains lie some of the country's most significant archaeological attractions.
Perhaps Ayacucho's greatest allure is the authenticity with which it pulls off its charms. Its development has been tasteful, its commercialization blissfully limited and, if you take to the pedestrianized, cobbled city central streets early enough, it is easy to imagine yourself transported back several centuries to its colonial heyday. That said, these days designer-clad students and businesspeople are increasingly in evidence and behind many colonial facades are plenty of sumptuous accommodations and suave restaurants. What is clear is that Peru's most enticing Andean city after Cuzco is experiencing a resurgence − one that is well worth witnessing.

POSTED: Monday, September 24, 2012 - 11:20am
UPDATED: Monday, September 24, 2012 - 11:56am
Tyler, TX — Authorities have released the name of a man who is in stable condition this morning after being shot in the chest early Sunday near UT-Tyler.
The victim has been identified as Tarrington Joiner, 21, of Tyler, according to the Tyler Police Department. Officials say he was shot [1] at the intersection of Patriot and University.
Joiner and two friends were allegedly in a dispute that night at Outlaws Club on Hwy. 110 South, but then left.
Shortly before 2:30 a.m., authorities believe several men riding in a tan Dodge Durango with large rims pulled up next to Joiner's vehicle on Patriot and fired several rounds at him. Joiner was hit by one bullet in his chest. The victim's friend jumped into the driver's seat and took him immediately to a local hospital. He is currently in stable condition.
Anyone with information about the suspects involved in this crime is urged to contact the Tyler Police Department, at 903-531-1000, or Crimestoppers at 903-597-CUFF (903-597-2833). Crimestoppers will pay up to $1,000 for information that leads to the arrest and charges filed against the suspects in this case or any felony case.

My Clivias growing in my atrium have suddenly all started producing bulbs. There are about 100 bulbs peaking up through the peat moss they're planted in. I need some advice on how to replant these to begin their growth into plants. Thanks, Steveareno |

Note: we'll leave it up to you to decide what's better—Debs smearing cake on Tiffany's boobs (naturally), or the bit at the end where they've both rolled into a swamp (naturally) and Gibson quips, "I think we're alone now." (Wink!)
According to IMDB.com, Mega Python vs. Gatoroid isn't set to air until 2011. As if we need any other scene than this. Replay!
